Útmutatók

Preheat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7. De-vein the prawns, rinse under cold water and pat dry on kitchen paper.

Pour the oil into an ovenproof terracotta or ceramic dish that is large enough to hold the prawns in a single layer – alternatively use two smaller dishes. Add the garlic and crushed chilli to the oil.

Heat the dishes in the hot oven for 5 minutes until the oil is very hot and the garlic has softened and started to turn golden brown. Quickly add the prawns to the hot oil, season with smoked paprika, salt and pepper and return to the oven for 5 minutes until the prawns are cooked through.

Scatter with the parsley, squeeze over the lemon juice and serve immediately with plenty of bread for mopping up the juices.
